When I close a PPP connection with `C-c', the keyboard gets stuck and I have to
reboot the system.  The problem is reported here:

 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=508589

In the hope of fixing it by updating the kernel, I want to install a freshly
new one from the backport repositories.  Can anyone suggest the exact package
name?  I have Lenny on an old Pentium III.

Thanks for any help
Rodolfo
